FAQs
Are these slippers true to size?
Birkenstock Boston clogs generally fit true to standard adult sizing, though the adjustable strap allows for slight variations in width and instep height.
Can I wear these outdoors?
Yes, the Boston model features a durable sole suitable for casual outdoor activities, though they should be kept away from excessive mud or standing water.
How do I clean the sheepskin lining?
Use a specialized leather or sheepskin cleaner. Avoid submerging the sandals in water, as this can damage the cork footbed.
Can the footbed be replaced?
While the footbed is designed for long-term durability, you should consult an authorized cobbler if the cork begins to crumble or wear through after years of use.
Is the strap adjustable?
Yes, the metal buckle allows you to loosen or tighten the strap to achieve a secure fit that stays on your foot comfortably.
Troubleshooting
Footbed feels stiff when new
This is normal. Wear the sandals for short periods indoors to allow the cork-latex core to gradually soften and adapt to your foot shape.
Sheepskin lining appears matted
Use a dedicated suede or sheepskin brush to gently comb through the fibers, which helps restore their original loft and softness.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your Boston sandals, avoid exposing them to direct heat sources like radiators, as this can degrade the natural materials. If the sheepskin becomes damp, allow the slippers to air dry naturally in a cool, well-ventilated area away from direct sunlight. To maintain the appearance, use a soft-bristled brush to gently remove surface debris and fluff the sheepskin fibers. Because these sandals feature a specific anatomical footbed, it is normal to experience a short 'breaking in' phase where the cork molds to your unique footprint.
